AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A REZONE TO PD (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) AND AN OUTLINE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE MIND SPRINGS HEALTH CAMPUS
LOCATED AT 515, 521 28 3/4 ROAD AND 2862 NORTH AVENUE
Recitals:
The applicant, Mind Springs Health, is requesting approval of a rezone to PD (Planned Development), with a default zone of C-1 (Light Commercial), and an Outline Development Plan, for property located at 515 and 521 28 ¾ Road and 2862 North Avenue in conjunction with the development of three additional phases of expansion with Phase 1 proposed as a 48 bed psychiatric hospital designed to expand to 64 beds all located on 12.34 +/- acres. The proposed rezone to PD will provide a uniform zone district to best fit the needs of the campus for future expansion of services and facilities.
In accordance with the Planning Commission’s Findings, Conclusions and Conditions, the 2004 Conditional Use Permit will terminate upon the effective date of this Ordinance.
The request for the rezone and Outline Development Plan have been submitted in accordance with the Zoning and Development Code (Code).
This Planned Development zoning ordinance will establish the standards, default zoning (C-1), land uses and conditions of approval for the Outline Development Plan for Mind Springs Health.
In public hearings, the Planning Commission and City Council reviewed the request for the proposed Outline Development Plan and determined that the Plan satisfied the criteria of the Code and is consistent with the purpose and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. Furthermore, it was determined that the proposed Plan has achieved “long-term community benefits” by effective infrastructure design by consolidating needed psychiatric medical services into one centralized location; reducing traffic demands; providing greater quality and quantity of private open space; and innovative design with contemporary architecture that exceeds or matches existing buildings on-site (attached Exhibit A).
